If only I were Smarter clever as Oxford scholar Then what a life it be If only I were Wealthy flowing with money Then never a worry Would there be If only I were Righteous Overwhelming piety Then you would never be Quite as good as me If only I were Happy Contentment abound then never would I write abject insincerity If only I were You Sickeningly perfect Then I would always be Happy because I was you And not me. |

Oh, Brad, you are special in your own write! ~ I mean "right"! Actually in your write as well! The lives of those who may have more advantages, may not be as rosy as they appear! As Erma Bombeck wrote, "The grass is greener over the septic tank!" Loving hugs, EA |

If only …. yes we erroneously think so at times. But happiness lies within your heart, independently of these things. You know this. Love, Margherita |
